1. This is not due for a week. I can do this later and take a nap now

.

If you love naps as much as I do, then this thought is constantly running through your mind instead of all the assignments that you have piling up on your desk.

2. What would happen if I didn't do this assignment?

There is always that one assignment that you just don't want to do. Not that it's hard, you just don't feel like putting in the effort to complete the assignment.

3. What would happen if I just didn't get out of bed today?

We all have that one class that we just hate going to. This thought comes to mind every time you have to go to that class and question yourself why you're in the class to begin with.

4. I still have 3 days to complete the assignment. I have loads of time!

While you still have time for that one assignment, you have others that are due the next day that you forgot to do, so you do those in a frantic panic instead of the one that is due in 3 days.

5. I wonder what show I should watch on Netflix?

While your ever-growing pile of assignments that you have are just sitting on your desk, the main question is what show you should binge-watch to forget about the assignments.

6. It's 2 days before the assignment is due. I totally still have time to do it!

There is still plenty of time to complete this assignment. I can continue my marathon of Netflix shows.

7. Night before the assignment is due: "WHY DID I WAIT TO COMPLETE THIS ASSIGNMENT!"

Okay time to start panicking and questioning why you put the assignment off, all the while still having no motivation to complete the assignment.

8. Can I drop out now?

We all ask this question whether we are working on an assignment or are getting ready for the class that you still don't want to go to.

9. I can still pass with one late assignment, right?

As much as this comes to your mind when you are working on an assignment, try to complete the assignment on time even if you are pulling all-nighters and internally crying.

10. Stays up until 4 am: "I am never doing this again!"

Finished assignment at 4:30 in the morning with 8 cups of coffee in your system. Lesson learned: never procrastinate on assignments!


*Repeats cycle on next assignment*

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.

Chandler Bing
Zimbio

Ah, Ms. Chanandler Bong, or Chandler Bing as he is better known as. For 10 years, Chandler brought us many laughs, many tears, and, well, Matthew Perry's fame. He is, personally, my favorite character on "Friends" because he made me laugh more than any other character on the show and I felt like I could relate to him more than the other characters on the show. Anyway, here are 10 Chandler Bing quotes that anyone can relate to... or graduates can at least...
